Abstract
    This note is no original work. It is a summary and translation of the report “Belgische scenario’s voor de Maas” made by Otto de Keizer and Jaap Kwadijk from Deltares (april 2009). This summary is made to communicate the results to the project partners of the AMICE project.

    Climate change impacts for three scenarios were made by KULeuven Hydraulics Laboratory for Flanders Hydraulics Research (FHR) based on the scientific results of the Belgian Science Policy (Belspo) project “Climate Change Impacts on Hydrology” (CCI-Hydr) and applied on the hydrologic models available at FHR for sub catchments in the river Scheldt district. In the AMICE project climate change impacts on the hydrology of the river Meuse are an important topic. FHR has no hydrologic models for the Meuse catchments and ordered a study at Deltares to define boundary conditions for the FHR hydrodynamic Meuse model based on the three scenarios for climate change defined for FHR by KULeuven, the hydrologic models of Deltares and the SOBEK 1D routing model for the part of the river Meuse upstream Flanders.
